You can hear the waves in underwater caves, As if you actually were inside a saltwater room.
[Chorus]
GTime together isn't Em7ever quite enough.
A7sus4When you and I are alone Cadd9I've never felt so at home.
GWhat will it take to make or Em7break this hint of love?
A7sus4Only time, Cadd9only time.

I guess we'll never know why sparrows love the snow.
We'll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow.

(So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love?)
PM-A7sus4 PM-Cadd9
(Yeah all the time)(All the time)

GTime together isn't Em7ever quite enough.
A7sus4When you and I are alone Cadd9I've never felt so at home.
GWhat will it take to make or Em7break this hint of love?
A7sus4Only time, Cadd9only time.
GWhen we're apart whatever Em7are you thinking of?

GSo tell me darling, do you Em7wish we'd fall in love?
A7sus4All the time, Cadd9all the time
